    I think it is a great style. But its just a style and can easily be modified or replaced by something else so it matches the specific needs of every one.

    Ok, I think I will pass then - thank you
    Same here, it's the most bland looking forum software I ever came across.
    Honestly, I find it a little bit unfair for the VB team to say "and very nice it is", when apparently none of their paying customers actually agree with them. There's no shame in admitting a mistake, and this theme seems to be a huge mistake.
    Why is it "unfair" for me to give my opinion on the style? I rather like it. The shade of blue could be brighter in places. I made it green on my demo site and I like it. http://www.talknewsuk.com/forum
    I can't even see your forum, the site is taking years to load. I wonder why.

    Either way, I agree with the mock ups being a superior design.

    Agreed IcEWoLF! If I were them, I'd hire this guy - my initial reaction was WOW, I would buy this. And I think a lot of others would feel the same way too.

    There are a lot of other issues to work through, I know - but theme is a great way to get people excited fast

    And here's another one from Feldon23. What do other users think? Better or worse than the current theme? To me, it is infinitely more attractive and engaging.

    User Feldon23 has done some amazing mockups - I hope the VB staff considers these. It's like getting free design help - and looks incredible!!

    Is this the final VB5 theme?

    I know I'm in the minority here, but I actually really like VB5.

    But I'm wondering, is this the final theme? It feels very bare, almost depressing. Something about it feels very non-engaging, where all of the past main styles made me feel addicted to the community.

    The grey fuzzy static background just doesn't feel right. There is just so much white space, contrasted with that extremely dark turquoise (almost black). There are so many random different shades of dark blue, green, vibrant blue, snow blue, shiny blue, silver - it seems really disjointed.

    I hope there will be a theme upgrade - I think this might make the whole release much more exciting!

    Thanks
